"Although this seems normal in our culture, these behavioural traits are not in our genetic coding. In fact, this consumerism behaviour has been with us as recently as televisions entered our homes. Our basic needs were suddenly not enough. Advertising has convinced us that being just like everyone else is a bad thing. We are often shown images of a single happy person holding a product in a crowd of grey unhappy drones. The affect this has on your subconscious is far more devastating than what your conscious mind recognises. Basically, advertising has been telling us to hate ourselves with what we have, and that the only way we can truly be happy is to have something new. "
